Well, it's legit overwhelming. I don't like to hear you feel helpless in the face of it all, but I can certainly understand.
Nobody can tell Marmaduke what to do. That's my kind of dog.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I vastly prefer for the last season on West Wing, Scandal and House of Cards TO STAY IN MY FUCKING TV SCRIPTS. Half joking, journalists should start consulting Shonda's writer pools for strategic advice.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I am thinking about not going to work on inauguration day and going to a march 30 miles away. It will be a small one and just encircling a county courthouse, but I am thinking about it.
Skip work on inauguration day to come to Chicago for the march the next day! Or you know, go to a more local one.

I like how Trump is going to replace the ACA with something far less expensive and far better, but can't provide even a hint of what that means. Does anyone actually buy this BS?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Yes Gud, millions of people buy it, believe it, and will scream at you if you speak against him or ask for specifics.

I am planning to be in Canada for Inauguration Day.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Fuuuuuuuucccckkkk. Some asshole on my Kenyon alumni group is bleating and moaning about how she got unfriended because she voted Trump (by me). She's the most hypocritical Marin county, rich, supported-by-her-husband asshole who wants to assure everybody how much she supports gay rights (though she voted for a man who will literally strip Federal gay right protections on the first day). Fuck that fucker. Enemy list.
Plus, my business partner who assured me he would NOT do the one thing that I said was utterly shitty and counter productive and wasting of my work and time, then went and DID that very fucking thing today.
And...my right hip has developed a new interesting pain which spikes up to a 9 and has me limping like Ahab around the Pequod and makes me hate every fucking thing.
So I've got an extra portion of hate to spare.
I am totally in a Smash It All mood.

Canada would be nice. But I have the day off; maybe I'll go hiking or skiing or something that takes me far away from the news.

Consuela, I have requested the day off and would be interested in hiking. I don't know how to ski, though.

Ugh. Burn it all down, David. You need to show some folks they shouldn't mess with you. (And, I don't know, burn down your hip, too. Metaphorically.) (But maybe lie on a heating pad. Just not until it burns.)
